As the title says, I rooted with "AN" 3.0 and 1.1. I erroneously thought this was good to go... but apparently this isn't the official autonooter's team 3.0 release. One of the issues is clockworkmod doesn't work (actually... it works... you just can't get out of it). I'd like CWR to work to install Froyo and eventually HC.
I'm wondering if anyone has downgraded their nook to an unrooted stock 1.0.1 and then re-rooted with the latest official Autonooter (2.12.25)?
I guess these are my questions:
1. If I do the 8boot interruption + data clear (from nookdevs site), does this unroot the nook?
2. if I do #1, and it's unrooted, will I still be on 1.1? I installed 1.1 before AN3.0.
3. if #2 is true... I'll have to downgrade to 1.0.1. But the links in the AN2.12.25 to get 1.0.1 now only provide 1.1 on B&N's site. I can change the URL to the 1.1 download to the 1.0.1 download, right?
Thanks for any help.
should work
I've been wondering the same thing.

I have a Nook Color running the latest 1.1 stock update that I would like to root. Even if it requires downgrading, that's fine.
Is there a way to do this yet?
Today the downgrade is what you have to do. Downgrade to 1.0.1, root, apply 1.1.0 per sticky.
But,if you wait a few days someone may have updated the auto-nooter to root 1.1.0.
Another option is to run Nookie off SD card or flash and not worry about 1.1.0.
Are there instructions on how to downgrade yet?

I have two nooks - one that had 1.0.1 and one with 1.1.0, both autonootered from that point. The 1.1.0 nook seems to have 100% functionality, not so with the 1.0.1. So, I'd like to take the 1.0.1 up to 1.1.0, but I'm wondering what the best way is? If I read the various threads correctly, going from rooted 1.0.1 straight to rooted 1.1.0 is not the same as rooting stock 1.1.0.
So - do I have that right? If I use 1.1.0 v2, will I get the same functionality as freshly rooting a stock 1.1.0? Or am I better off going back to stock on the 1.0.1, sideloading the update to 1.1.0, then rooting from there?
A friend who's nook is neutered but not updated wants me to update her nook to the latest Barnes and Noble Rom.
On my nook I run the latest CM7 nightly with OC kernel, and have no problem with CWR etc.
On hers, I want to keep it as stock as possible. Just want to update it to the latest stock ROM. And neuter it so she can use market etc.
What's the easiest way to go from a neutered 1.1 to a neutered 1.2 (or whatever is the recent B&N ROM update)? Thanks, and sorry if I got those ROM version numbers wrong.
Will it update itself?
Just wondering if I leave her alone for a week or two will she receive an OTA update automatically? (over wifi I guess?) (even if it's neutered?)
I would wait for a autonooter to come out for 1.2 before doing anything unless you like living on the edge.
I was using a nootered 1.0.1 this morning, had to format my system and Data partitions to restore the nook back to factory. Then i had to manually update to 1.2.
Now I've lost root capability and access to the market. The market that BN does offer is not very impressive.
Will Autonootered nook receive OTA update?
Anyone who Nootered their nook received the latest update? Thanks.
If you rooted your Nook won't update. If you want to update you have to perform a Factory reset. Go to Nookdevs and find the Remove Root page.

If you are using a rooted 1.1, you will need to
1.) Flash Clockwork 3.0.1.0 (or newer) to a micro SD card (Google 'clockwork bootable' and look for a result from mrm3[dot]net)
2.) Download the compatible 1.2 signed image (plain, not keepcwm) and put it on the micro SD card that you just flashed. LINK
3.) Turn off your nook color, put in the micro SD card, and power it up.
4.) You will need to 'flash zip from SD card'. Choose the 1.2 file and flash it.
5.) Go back to main menu (the power button functions as the back button) and do a factory restore (this will clear cache as well)
6.) Pull the sd card from your nook color, then choose "reboot"
7.?) I got an install error on first boot. I waited until the screen turned off on its own, then powered back up. It properly booted to the initial registration screen
****Note, you need Clockwork 3.0.1.0 to flash the 1.2 image, otherwise you will get stuck at the 'n' screen when you try to boot.
I just got done flashing from a rooted 1.1 to stock 1.2. Now to tackle rooting 1.2

I don't think that's the case.
My rooted 1.1 nook has been sitting untouched for about a week. I turned it on today and it looks like I got the OTA update (I am being asked to register when I turn it on as if it was a new nook). As I said, it was rooted and had the 1.1 update only.

Not quite true. There's been anecdotal evidence that a rooted NC with CWM installed in emmc may prevent updates. But as others have mentioned many rooted NC have been updated.

Finished rooting after 1.2 update on my stock backup NC. The MN works just fine. I would suggest backuping up files and flashing back to stock (1.1.0) the rooted NC. Only way I know of to ensure a clean eMMC.
Then load the 1.2 downloaded file from BN and update. Then snag the MN to root.
Side note: Use latest CWR 3.0.2.8 and not 3.0.1.0
Once the 1.2 is rooted you'll probably need to do the "standard gapps" reset (clear cache & FC Apps the Google Framework). Then the entire Market will show.
Note also: some apps will fail to install (for me Angry Birds and Aldiko) Use Root Explorer to download the cut/paste file from downloadnull folder to sys/apps, rename and install using package installer.
Above worked for me earlier today.
I went to root wife's NC and had problems. Could only get v1.0 back on it for rooting. I have the 1.2.zip update. Can I flash that update, or will it unroot the NC?
The Barnes&Noble 1.2 update.zip will only apply to a stock (unrooted) NC. Does not matter if it is 1.0, 1.0.1 or 1.1. So you'll first have to restore to stock, then apply the update. Obviously you loose root. To get root back see the Manual Nooter thread in the Android Development section (current version is 4.5.25, link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054027)
Hey there Guys & Gals,
Searched throughout the forums and couldn't seem to find a straight answer on this.
I originally rooted my wife's 1.0.1 NC using Autonooter. That worked out great and then I was able to sideload the 1.1.0 NC updated using ROM Manager and CWR to apply the pre-rooted update ROM (this is where I got the pre-rooted sideload: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932145). After that I used an SQL editor to turn all the software updates to manual. This manual switch has held the 1.2.0 update off and everything is working great.
However, I'm really interested in 1.2.0 and would love to apply another sideloaded, pre-rooted update IF that exists. Does anyone know if this is out there? It sounds like most NC owners are running CM7 now as opposed to going down the stock rooted (no ROM) version of the NC. Is there anyone who was successfully able to load up rooted 1.2 from rooted 1.1 without having to resort to an alternate ROM?
As a side question, has any 1.1 NC owners had success with the Netflix app or does that absolutely require at least 1.2 to work correctly?
Thanks for your help!!!

Wanted to bump this one again in case anyone had any suggestions. If not, I'll let this thread die.
Same boat here. I'm still running 1.1 with updates set to manual but I have CM7 on SD. I would also like to update to 1.2 but as far as I know, the only way to do it is to return to stock, unrooted 1.1 and then apply the 1.2 update from B&N. After that, you have the manual nooter option to root 1.2.
Have not been able to get Netflix to work on either stock 1.1 or CM7 with and edited build.pro file. It doesn't show up in the Market so I haven't even been able to try to get it to work.
I know there's a CWM-compatible stock 1.2 ROM floating around the dev forum, but I don't know about pre-rooted. It would at least save you unrooting 1.1.
Sounds like best option is to use the 1.2 CWM capable update and then autonoot again... hmmmm. Everything is working great now and I don't want to mess anything up, but netflix and flash are both very tempting...
